and if this is discussed...merge it.
Is Todd France a left or right footed kicker? i cant seem to find the info.
If he's right-footed, could this add a little concern to Koy "Holder of Steal" Detmer? the snap and hold has to be burned so hard into muscle memory for detmer, he can hold for a lefty with his eyes shut.
but if he's switchin sides, does this make a big difference?
right footed

It had farging better not.

yes, he's on the other side, huge difference. actually i think this opens the opportunity for mcmahon to learn to hold and be available as the #2 while akers is out in the off-off-off chance that mcnabb can't go or gets injured.

Thornburg
I see no reason why Koy wouldnt be holding for France.

*puts fingers in ears*
LA LA LA LA...I'M NOT LISTENING...LA LA LA LA
Thornburg.
Owens.
Ditka.
France.
Ok, so...if I'm going to do the denial thing, I'm going to have to come up with a name.
Grasmanis is the pick made by Eskin, so that won't work.
Mahe and Simoneau have some kind of stay on the roster mojo going on, so they won't work.
Lessee...who else is 5th on the depth chart at his position and has no other useful purpose?
Billy McMullen - outta here! :o
Not France...Germany, Italy, even Poland perhaps, but not France...
Dawkins.
McNabb

We wouldn't want a holder controversy or anything...
At this point, if I'm the Chiefs GM, I know how to all-but guarantee a win on Sunday. Imagine if they cut some scrub off the bottom of their roster, and signed Todd France. I don't know why the Eagles still haven't made a move to add him to the roster. Picking up some other kicker who hasn't worked with Bartrum/Detmer in practice would be a big disadvantage to the Eagles.
At first I thought it might be because they were actually thinking Akers may have to go on IR anyway, but if he's still getting 2nd opinions and such, it's hard to believe they'd be able to make that decision by kickoff Sunday anyway.
they cut McCants

france would have to want to sign with the cheifs. and why would he burn the bridge unless the chiefs blew him away with an offer and gaurenteed him a bunch of money? which would be stupid.
besides they already cut the worst player on their roster. fredo.
It's obvious the Eagles FO has people monitoring this site. After reading my post and realizing the possible repercussions, they moved swiftly to get France on the active roster.
wll i guess it wasnt that stupid a question :-X
